RE: Vista SP1 and HP Deskjet and OfficeJet duplex head to toe issues

Hello Alan. My problem is ongoing and seems to be common: I have a 32 bit
Vista Ultimate os and my hp deskjet F380 will work as long as I do not stop
the printer in midprint, or run out of paper, (another stop in midprint). For
some reason I worked out that I could go to HP and download the software from
their website, but first have to click on internet tools, then clear temp
files. Next, I download the F380 software onto my hard drive. I'm good to go
again, until the printer is stopped/ not stopped as in finished printing, but
just stopped mid print.
Before I did all the downloading from the website, I tried using uploading
the software I got with the printer, but that no longer works. My drivers
always show up as current when I do the online HP assessment. Do you know if
HP has a current disc? I bought my printer in the fall of this year.
Thanks for your ear.
